Vinyl LP pressing. 2015 release. With Gates of Gold, Los Lobos, the pride of East LA, evoke a rich American saga in the tradition of Faulkner and Steinbeck. Check the haunting 'Made to Break Your Heart', the spicy 'Poquito' and the heartache in 'Magdalena'. Los Lobos are a multiple Grammy Award-winning American rock band. Their music is influenced by rock 'n' roll, Tex-Mex, country, folk, R&B, blues, brown-eyed soul, and traditional music such as cumbia, boleros and norteÂ±os. They gained international stardom in 1987 when their cover version of Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba" topped the charts in the US, the UK and in several other countries.
